King Arthur

    Growing up my family spent a lot of time in the car. It was an hour drive to school every morning, and on those long drives my Dad would ask questions like "If you were an aquatic animal what would you be?" or "What generic cereal would you be?" I know the questions were designed to keep us awake and entertain, but they meant more than that to me.
     The thought of being something else entirely reminds me of Wart as Merlin teaches him the many life lessons he would need to be a great king.
      I wonder how amazing it would be if everyone was able to experience being a gold fish, or a squirrel, or even a bird. How miraculous that would be!
